Goal completion moderates the association between immoral behavior and self-perceived authenticity
ABSTRACT Individuals may engage in immoral behavior to achieve the ends they desire. Two studies (total N = 1257) investigated whether the impact of such goal-directed immoral behavior on self-perceived authenticity would vary according to different goal states. Study 1 employed an experimental task whereas Study 2 surveyed participants on their personal goal pursuit. In both studies, we found that the association between immoral behavior and self-perceived authenticity was stronger after than prior to goal completion. Our findings corroborate the goal competition perspective on authenticity, and suggest avenues for future research on state authenticity and the dynamic consequences of immoral behavior.
期刊介绍:
Work on self and identity has a special place in the study of human nature, as self-concerns are arguably at the center of individuals" striving for well-being and for making sense of one"s life. Life goals develop and are influenced by one"s view of what one is like, the way one would ideally like to be (or would like to avoid being), as well as one"s perceptions of what is feasible. Furthermore, conceptions of self and the world affect how one"s progress towards these goals is monitored, evaluated, redirected, re-evaluated, and pursued again. Thus, the “self” as a construct has far-reaching implications for behavior, self-esteem, motivation, experience of emotions and the world more broadly, and hence for interpersonal relationships, society, and culture.
